TY - GEN N2 - Postpartum depression (PPD) is a mental health illness that can affect any childbearing woman, resulting in adverse effects on maternal functioning and effects on infant development. The incidence of PPD is known to affect 10-20% of the general population, however it is estimated that Latina women have three to four times greater risk of developing PPD. There is a general consensus that recommends assessment of PPD through routine screening with a validated tool such as the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). The purpose of this quality improvement project was to improve PPD screening practices at a community women's health care clinic serving Latina women.
